AWE Track Edition Cat-Back Exhaust System (No Tips) – 2022-2025 Audi RS3 (8Y) 2.5L Turbo
The AWE Track Edition cat-back exhaust for the 8Y RS3 removes the driver-side muffler and passenger-side valve from the SwitchPath™ system for a constant “valves open” mode that unleashes the full rowdy five-cylinder soundtrack. Hand-crafted from 3″ and 2.5″ T304L stainless steel with a precision mid-pipe merge, this non-resonated system delivers max gains of 9 hp and 11 lb-ft while providing the most aggressive tone available – designed for owners who want rich 5-cylinder notes at all times without compromise.
